#1 Missiles are make here in the states for the iron dome. Backlog of course. Several new buildings being built, cost is of no concern. Western media and the rest of the world have polar opposite view points on this attack by Iran.
Israel reports 99 % effective rates reported exactly the same in Ukraine media.

#3 Even a 50% hit rate is something the left has said is "unpossible."

We're doing way better than that.

#4 But it’s not a 50% hit rate, M. It’s 99% of that part that’s actually a threat when sent up in what’s intended to be overwhelming waves. I imagine there were chortles of glee in the IRGC planning room as they set it all up, congratulating one another on their military cleverness.

Clearly Allah wanted Iran to be publicly humiliated.

#5 We are in the early days of BMD. Arleigh Burke destroyers shoot down missiles, planes and even satellites with a common radar suite and SM-3 and SM-6 missiles. The Ground Based Anti Missile gets better all the time.

Just more police the "progressives" want to defund.

#6 You know who was way out front believing we could use existing assets to do BMD? Jeff "Skunk" Baxster of Steely Dan.

#7 #2 I can explain it to you but I can't make you understand.
